Did you know we don't use tape measures at Bravissimo? Instead we fit by eye as knowing how a bra should look and feel is the best way to find your most comfortable fit - here's how…
How do you know if your bra fits right?
1
How should your band fit?
Most of the support comes from the underband. It should be horizontal around your body without riding up or digging in. We recommend fastening a new bra on its loosest hooks so that you can tighten it if it stretches over time.
2
Where should the underwire of a bra sit?
The underwires in your bra should sit flat on your ribcage (not your boob!) all the way round to your armpits. The wires between your boobs should lie flat against your chest without digging in, rubbing or poking out.
3
How should a bra cup fit?
Make sure your boobs are fully in the cups – a bit of a scoop, wiggle and jiggle usually does the trick! You should fill the cups without any bulging or wrinkling even in a lower-cut style and there should be a smooth line, with no ridge, where the top and the side of the fabric ends.
Not sure what size you are, or feeling uncomfortable in your current size? Don’t worry, we’re here to help! A whopping 92% of women change bra size after their first fitting with us, so you’re not alone! We promise we can find you the uplifting fit that you deserve.

Just bought the coral bralette. Finally when I get home my wired bra comes off and I slip this on. It is the most comfortable bra I have ever worn. Will it come in a white and nude? Thank you Bravissimo.

I bought a bra a bit smaller because my size is not in the chart. I love it! It doesn't have wires that hurt me a lot and it holds! Amazing!

Review by Rean S on
It's really well fitting, holds the boobs in place and looks fantastic under sheer tops. It's soooo hard to find non-underwire bras of any kind in J cup especially when you have a small band measurement (28). Why do bra makers think that people with a large bust like having metal underwire digging into their ribcage all day?! We don't please make more non-underwire styles in 28J and above!
For me the support is good enough for daily wear, maybe don't run down the stairs at full speed though. It doesn't provide a super separated boob look but I'm fine with that, I imagine that look is hard to achieve without underwire.
Only gripe is that the slightly bulky line of stitching on the strap falls right on the shoulder and so after a full day holding up a pair of heavy boobs, it does leave a mark on the shoulders where it has been digging in. Also, the longline of the band rolls up a little bit but personally doesn't bother me much.
All in all, 100x more comfortable than a normal underwire bra, please make in more colours!
Beautiful bralette, not great for heavy boobs2 out of 5 stars

Review by Naomi on
I tried this on in store recently, in the lavender. The colour is gorgeous and the style is amazing. Unfortunately it wasn't a great fit for me. For reference I have heavy, saggy boobs. I tried the 36HH/J, and the cup fit well, but the back felt really loose. The shoulder straps dug in and were fairly painful.
I thought a tighter band might help, but after trying the 34, the straps were still painful, and were rolling over into themselves.
This probably wouldn't be an issue for a lot of people, but because my boobs aren't self-supporting at all, I don't think bralettes are quite suitable for me yet!

Review by Shannon on
So, I have struggled for a long time to get a good bra for myself. I'm currently a 32G, previously a 32DDD, but with my size passing the D's I had to get rid of all my bras and get one more appropriate to my size. I've had a lot of bralette jealousy because they looked so comfy but I knew I could never find one to fit me... until now. I tried it on the moment I saw the box and I'm never taking it off. It's soo comfortable and soft, and stylish too. The only note I have style-wise is that it has a bit of uniboob going on, but with how comfortable it is I could care less. And the most important part, it holds the girls!! Of course, being that it's a bralette it tends to *hold* them more than provide a lot of support, but I was expecting that so I'm satisfied! I think if I'm looking for more support I'll invest in a regular bra, still wire-free though. I am never going back to a bra with underwire, now that I know there are places I can get supportive bras without them! I will definitely shop on this website again and I would recommend this bralette to everyone who is bustier with a smaller waist!!

Review by Marta on
I'm amazed how much I love this bra - it's soft and pretty and looks nice on. The wide band does roll up a bit and you can see the straps in wide or low neck tops, but that doesn't matter at all. It gives me a lovely soft shape, and above all it's really really comfortable. I am thrilled that I can feel held and supported without wires or padding. For some time I've been finding wires uncomfortable, so this is truly wonderful. More colours please!
Disappointed :(3 out of 5 stars

Review by Jess on
I really wanted to love this. I do struggle to find a good fit at the moment.
I did follow advice and go down in the back and up in the cup.
The straps won't stay flat and curled. The under bust material rolled up probably because it's so soft.
As a result its being returned
Perfect!!! 28 in more colours please4 out of 5 stars

Finally a bralette that’s perfect for big boobs!!! This is the only one I’ve found that fits me perfectly, is super comfy and still supportive. Please can we have more colours available in 28 back - I would have one in every colour if I could!
